University Donates Books To Albania

at the Sacramento campus.

McGeorge shipped nearly 1,000 pounds of law books in November to the law faculty at
the University of Tirana, who have struggled with inadequate library resources since
the school’s founding.

The effort came in response to a request from that Albanian law school for library
materials on the American legal system. Professor Lucien Dhooge, who teaches international
business law at the University of the Pacific’s undergraduate campus in Stockton,
organized the effort. Technical Services librarian Michele Finerty, seen in front
of the wall of boxed books, coordinated the donations at the Sacramento campus.
